This broadly-based history offers a new look at the origins of western civilization and highlights the changes that transpired in Greece between 1200 BC and the ascendancy of Rome. Interspersed throughout the text are translated primary sources and brief accounts of what was occurring in the rest of the eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East during the classical period.

In ancient times, the spacefaring Hellenes and their Gods defeated an empire that threatened the entire galaxy. Now, after centuries of darkness, their enemies have returned for a final reckoning, and only a chosen few -- wielding the power of the Gods -- stand between them and certain destruction.

This dissertation was posthumously published after the author's death at the age of 24. It covers the education system in use in Greece—specifically in Athens, during Ancient Greek times.

The land of Hellas was named from a range of heights in Baluchistan; Hellenes, from an ancient sun-worshipping tribe of Rajput. Hel-en, the Sun King, whose land was called in Greek Hella-dos and in Sanskrit Hela-des, left his kingdom to Aiolus, his eldest son, while he sent forth Dorus and Zuthus to make conquests in foreign lands. The Kings of Oxus or Ookshainos established the kingdom of Oox-ina in Hellas; their descendants altered it to Axeinos or Euxine. By their numbers and their prowess, the children of the Sun or Asii, the mighty warlike tribes, gave their enduring name to the Continent of Asia. The Scanda-Nabhi (Scandi-Navi) or Scanda Chiefs, and the Indian Kshatriya or warrior caste, became the European Scandinavians. Hellas was pure Indian during the Trojan war. Notable examples of the Indianisation of the land of Hellas by the Kshatriyas included the Logurh-Ooksh-Walœ and the Baihooyas, who settled in Ozolian Locris and the island of Eu-boia, respectively. It is impossible not to be struck with the singular similarity of the tract of country both old and new: how truly did the Indian settlers exchange one land of mountain and of flood for another, almost its exact counterpart! Dodona was much anterior to the Trojan war, which took place 6,000 years BCE. It was from its temple that the bloodless offerings of the Hyperboreans to Apollo were despatched. Then Su-Meru, the Olympus of the Hindoo Pantheon, became the Epirote Tomaros. The Chiefs of Hellas or Hellopes settled west of Tomaros. Equidistant between Doda and Mer was the town of Pambur. When settled in Epirus, the Kashmiri emigrants commemorated the lake nearby as Pamvotis or land of the Pambur. The ancient people of Pambur, now grouped along the western heights of the Grecian Tomaros, are the Hellopes or Chiefs of Hela. Their adopted country is the Land of Hela or Hella-dos; their sacred tribe, the Dodo; their priests, the Selli or Brahmans; their oracle was fixed towards the northerly line of the Hellopes. In Thessaly, the eastern neighbours of the Hyperboreans, were Peshawari emigrants who settled in the south of the holy mountain. They since appeared on stage in the Greek guise of Passaron. The connection between the settlements of Dodan and the Dodonian Oracle, the Peshawar people, and the offerings of the Hyperboreans or “men of Khyber-Poor,” who were all priests of Apollo, is now firmly established. The Epirote Dodon and Bodon tribes were at the heart of Ancient Greece. The Dodon tribe represented the Brahmanical sect; the Bodon tribe, the Budhistic sect. The former was based in Dodona; the latter in Damastium, a town five miles north of Dodona. Hi-Pur or Epirus was Budhist throughout, land and home of a noble equestrian Rajpoot tribe. Graikoi were clans of Griha: Macedonian Lords Paramount and Indian Emperors. Immigrant Graihakas were staunch Budhists. Such Great Truths Geography has restored to History.
